Feedback is what Symless wanted... well, that's what this is in all its glory. I hope they will take the feedback and adjust appropriately for beta 5. I'd argue that when the software maintainer has already said that their beta is experiencing some disruption, and asked everyone to "sit tight," that you don't need to report anything. Just "sit tight." Edited September 12, 2017 by swaziloo Grammar. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Mohammad Minaie 4 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Couldn't agree more with it being feedback. Hopefully its heard, please announce service announcements in advance. Thanks Edited September 12, 2017 by Mohammad Minaie Link to post Share on other sites
TechG 2 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Just posting here for an update when beta 4 will be available. Thanks Symless! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
kbuckham 2 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 For me, I can't get Synergy 1 to work on my setup. I do understand it is beta, so I'm using two keyboards and two mice for the day. Not fun, Link to post Share on other sites
swaziloo 19 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I have one of these I use as a backup. Decent product for $30: https://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Computer-Peripheral-Sharing-GUS402/dp/B00BD8I2OY Not as good as Synergy2 though--better than two keyboards/mice.

Popular Post swaziloo 19 Posted September 12, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted September 12, 2017 One suggestion for Symless: The download page https://symless.com/synergy/downloads for Synergy 2 doesn't tell me which version is available, so I (most likely like everyone else) have downloaded a couple dozen copies of beta3 already today to check if next version has dropped. If that page showed me (even on mouseover) the file/version, I'd be consuming less of your bandwidth. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Gail 1 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 LOL Timing - its 9am on a wednesday morning here in AU. Oh wells. Beta is as beta does. **waits patiently** 1 Link to post Share on other sites
hellodaniel 1 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 (edited) Understandably we're using the beta and should expect issues but dropping all support and functionality for Beta 3 before Beta 4 is even available is frustrating. Since it's 2:30am at Symless HQ I'm not sure we can expect a fix for at least another 6+ hours. Sitting tiiiiiiiight!... Edited September 13, 2017 by hellodaniel Link to post Share on other sites
#Jp 3 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 While I agree that it's a pain to get this message only to find out that there's no new version available for download which makes synergy 2 inoperable, it's also worth mentioning that it only take less than 15 minutes to get synergy 1.8 running. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 2 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 As someone who griped that we were left in the dark when this happened back in July, I appreciate that there has been more immediate communication since then, particularly on this thread. Thanks for that. Link to post Share on other sites
